太好聽了Q__Q 先翻起來晚一點再來補前言~
(來補了~)
Alicia Keys 的這首歌是關於美國最近的警察暴力事件
為了正義和權利發聲
歌曲從母親的角度出發，述說了最近發生的暴力事件還有依這次事件而起的系列街頭抗議

Simple walk to the corner store 一小段簡單的散步到角落的那間店
Mama never thought she would be gettin' a call from the coroner 媽媽從來沒想過她會從死因裁判官那裡接到電話
Said her son's been gunned down, been gunned down 說她的兒子被槍殺了、被槍殺了
"Can you come now?" "您現在能過來嗎?"
Tears in her eyes, "Can you calm down? 眼淚在她眼眶裡 "您先冷靜下來
Please, ma'am, can you calm down?" 女士，請您先冷靜下來"

But it rained fire in the city that day, they say 但那天城市裡下著大火，他們說
A river of blood in the streets 血流成的河在街道之間
No love in the streets 街道之間沒有愛
And then came silence in the city that day, they say 然後那天寂靜降臨在城市之中，他們說
Just another one gone 只是另一個生命的逝去
And they tell her move on 然後他們叫她要放下、向前邁進

And she's stuck there, singing 然而她停在那裡，唱著
"Baby, don't you close your eyes "寶貝，別閉上你的眼睛
'Cause this could be our final time 因為這可能是我們最後的時間了
And you know I'm horrible at saying goodbye 你知道我不擅長說再見
And I think of all you could have done 我想著所有你可能可以成就的事物
At least you'll stay forever young 至少你會永遠年輕
I guess you picked the perfect way to die 我想你選擇了最完美的方式離開
Oh, I guess you picked the perfect way to die" 噢，我想你選擇了最完美的方式離開"

New job, new city, new her 新的工作，新的城市，新的她
Bright-eyed, you would have been proud if you knew her 閃亮的眼睛，如果你認識她的話，你會感到驕傲
Flashing lights in the mirror, pull over, pull over 閃爍的燈光在鏡子中，靠邊停、靠邊停
A couple nights in detention and it's over, a whole life's over 幾個晚上的居留然後這一切都結束了，整個生命都結束了

They came marching in the city that day, they say 他們來到這個城市裡遊行，他們說
Carryin' signs in the street 帶著標語走在街道上
Cryin' eyes in the streets 哭泣著，在街道上
But they heard nothing from the city that day, they say 但他們沒有從城市那裡聽到什麼回覆，他們說
Just another one gone 只是另一個生命的逝去
And the city moved on 然後這座城市放下、向前邁進

We're stuck here singing 我們停在那裡，唱著
"Baby, don't you close your eyes "寶貝，別閉上你的眼睛
'Cause this could be our final time 因為這可能是我們最後的時間了
And you know I'm horrible at saying goodbye 你知道我不擅長說再見
And I think of all you coulda done 我想著所有你可能可以成就的事物
At least you'll stay forever young 至少你會永遠年輕
I guess you picked the perfect way to die 我想你選擇了最完美的方式離開
Oh, I guess you picked the perfect way to die" 噢，我想你選擇了最完美的方式離開"

Another dream lost 另一個夢逝去
Another king and queen lost 另一個國王和皇后逝去
Another broken promise they refuse to make right 另一個被打破的承諾，而他們拒絕改正
Oh, another night to live in fear 另一個活在恐懼中的夜晚
Oh, another night that you're not here 另一個你不在這裡的夜晚
Another reason to get out there and fight 另一個出去抗爭的原因

But I said, "Baby, don't you close your eyes 但我說，"寶貝，別閉上你的眼睛
'Cause this could be our final time 因為這可能是我們最後的時間了
And you know I'm horrible at saying goodbye 你知道我不擅長說再見
And I think of all you coulda done 我想著所有你可能可以成就的事物
At least you'll stay forever young 至少你會永遠年輕
I guess you picked the perfect way to die 我想你選擇了最完美的方式離開
Oh, I guess you picked the perfect way to die..." 噢，我想你選擇了最完美的方式離開..."

配著這首歌翻完差點哭出來嗚嗚
但是等一下還要開會先不能哭XD
超愛這首！！！大推！！！
真的是充滿情緒的一首歌QQ
是很沉重的內容，但她用一個很舒服的方式唱，反而會毫無防備的被這首歌攻到心裡QQ
希望這個世界可以更快邁向公平和和平
